Hardys Spring River Lodge

Super friendly staff. Nice breakfast during the weekend. The rooms were nice and clean. The beds, however, were kinda small and it can get loud during the middle of the night if your room is near the dining area. Over all, the staff are accommodating and willing to help. I appreciate that they have items for sale at the front desk in case you forgot certain things at home and forgot them for the trip. They also have a vending machine for those who have late night munchies.

I’d give them 6 stars if i could. It’s a great little hotel and it is CLEAN!!! nice indoor pool for the kids, nice breakfast area that serves bisquits and gravy, juice, cerel, toast, etc. for breakfast. The staff is so friendly and went you of their way to help out huge group of about 45. it was the really perfect place for us.

I can not say enough about this place. We had a family reunion here and they accommodated the entire family (over 40) people and exceeded our expectations 100%. The service, the staff, the rooms and the amenities were right on point. Highly recommend this place!!! We will stay here again!

Stopped overnight on our way through the area. Clean hotel, rooms on the smallish side. Little room for bassinet or sleeping bag for squabbling siblings on floor. Beds are queen and measure queen but seem smaller. Management posts lots of common sense rules that just got plain silly after seeing all of the little notes and signs. Made me wonder who stays there that they have to post in two different places in the room not to steal off the maids cart!

Mini family reunion for my passed Uncle Bud. My 85 yr old aunt lives in Hardy, AR, so off to there we go (mini me and myself). Small town, closes early, not a lot to see. However, Spring River Lodge is a nice little oasis. All the staff, and I mean all. Met the front of house folks, the cleaning crew and the breakfast folks. All of them pleasant and friendly. We had probably 20 – 30 family members staying here and it was a delight. It’s not fancy, but there is a nice, clean indoor pool; there’s a nice patio out back and a sizeable seating area (typically for breakfast — we took it over anyway). Super clean rooms (I saw, they actually do strip the bed down and wash/​replace EVERYTHING), comfortable beds and nice hot showers. What more could you want in little ol’ Hardy, AR? Not much methinks.
Liquor store across the street and McD’s as well for late night munchies (town shuts down around 9PM).

I will start this review by saying that I have not yet stayed here. My review is based on dealing with making a reservation, as well as cancelling the reservation. Overall, based on the customer service I received I not only would consider booking here again in the future but I also wanted to write a positive review so hopefully others give this business a chance.
When I made the reservation the receptionist was very friendly. I was booking with my dog and she made me feel VERY welcome. This was a nice surprise after many other area lodging options gave me the third degree about the breed of my dog, where the dog would sleep, etc. No third degree here… just a friendly person asking about the name of my dog and letting me know there was a $ 15 fee. I ended up needing to cancel the reservation. I called with 24 hours notice and they kindly cancelled it — no questions asked and not cancel fee. Nice and easy was my overall experience!
I did make it to Hardy (not for an overnight trip) and checked out the location for future visits. It’s actually a much better spot than one could tell by looking at google maps. It’s a 5 minute drive to Hardy Beach and a 3 – 5 minute drive to the boat launch. You could probably walk to downtown Hardy from here too. Private parking and on a littler hill by itself.
Looking forward to actually staying here in the future!
